With its headquarters in Borken-Weseke,<br />
Lanfer Automation is a leading company when<br />
it comes to individual solutions for automation<br />
and switch cabinet manufacture, and that<br />
throughout Germany. In an interesting lecture<br />
and brief films Marcus Kuhlmann demonstrates<br />
what the experts from Borken can do.<br />
Industrial automation<br />
fast, reliable and professional<br />
Lanfer Automation is able to draw on experience<br />
and skill built up over many years for the<br />
planning, design and realisation of complete<br />
and complex automation solutions in all areas.<br />
"We are able to cover the complete spectrum<br />
in electrical engineering and always adapt to<br />
your individual needs," explains Markus Kuhlmann.<br />
The expert knows that a higher level of<br />
profitability as a result of optimised processes<br />
is in greater demand than ever before and the<br />
logical consequence of Lanfer Automation's<br />
work<br />
Building automation -recognizing and exploiting<br />
the potential for savings<br />
in your building<br />
It started with a vision which came into<br />
Managing Director Alfred Lanfer's mind a few<br />
years ago and refused to go away: an intelligent<br />
building that uses IT solutions to direct<br />
the focus to what is important whilst saving<br />
energy. "Nowadays our<br />
company<br />
headquarters<br />
in Borken<br />
has been mo<strong>der</strong>nised appropriately and is the<br />
best possible demonstration of what can be<br />
achieved through building automation," says<br />
Kuhlmann. The conference room, for example,<br />
can be booked virtually, and when in use the<br />
temperature is optimised through heating in<br />
the winter and cooling in the summer.<br />
"Sensors - and this is what is special about it<br />
- inform the air conditioning, heating, lighting<br />
and shade systems so that they ensure an optimal<br />
climate and perfect lighting conditions<br />
in the room," explains Markus Kuhlmann. The<br />
data is collected so that after only a short time<br />
the first graphs of requirements are available<br />
and maintenance tasks can be identified at an<br />
early stage. The conference rooms in Borken-Weseke<br />
are also equipped with illuminated<br />
door handles so that one can tell from outside<br />
whether a room is occupied or free. "The potential<br />
for savings in energy consumption and<br />
time management are obvious and of interest<br />
to many of our, and perhaps also to your, customers,"<br />
Kuhlmann asserts.<br />
The linking of the individual trades with<br />
one another is a completely distinctive feature<br />
brought about by Lanfer Automation's staff.<br />
Intralogistics The basis for an optimal flow<br />
of goods<br />
Good, satisfactory logistics<br />
proceed from a<br />
smooth flow of goods.<br />
"For that the individual<br />
processes<br />
must coordinate<br />
perfectly with<br />
one another, and we achieve this through tailor-made<br />
solutions," says Kuhlmann. "We are<br />
a reliable partner and guarantee tailor-made<br />
systems for the decisive processes." With their<br />
carefully trained eye, the experts at Lanfer Automation<br />
identify potential for improvement,<br />
plan and realise the automation process.<br />
Energy monitoring - detect and remedy<br />
weak areas<br />
Says Markus Kuhlmann, "The fourth, and<br />
still very new, pillar of Lanfer Automation is<br />
so-called energy monitoring. Through this we<br />
are reacting to current developments: energy<br />
prices are rising and nobody can afford or<br />
wants to waste energy." By means of software<br />
which analyses the energy consumption within<br />
a company, the consumption of individual<br />
machines or whole plants can be recorded in<br />
detail.<br />
"The aim is to introduce optimisation measures<br />
based on the results of the monitoring.<br />
This software is definitely of interest for a wide<br />
range of potential customers, such as local municipalities,<br />
businesses, industry and the housing<br />
industry.<br />
Businesses in particular are taking a closer<br />
look at the topic of "saving energy"," the expert<br />
explains.<br />
